The profiles created by Bode analysts were then sent to the Virginia Department of Forensic Science (DFS). There, officials compared the new profiles to those in CODIS, which is the national database containing DNA profiles from other cases.

A spokesman for Attorney General Mark Herring explained profiles from the kits out of Virginia Beach got hits in CODIS, meaning the new profiles matched profiles already in the system.

"We will pursue justice and make sure that these perpetrators are brought to justice," Herring added.

It's important to note, this does not mean arrests are imminent.

Next the DFS will send the profiles to the Virginia Beach Police Department. Detectives then will have to do an investigation to figure out if crimes were, in fact, committed, and if they can build a case.

We are waiting to hear from Virginia Beach Police on how many hits there were.

A spokesperson for the department said they have not yet received the results, but will begin their investigation once they do.
